I have a gardening client!  Our neighbor has a landscape business but doesn't do the small stuff.  In fact his tiny plot of land behind the condo is only raggedy grass and an overgrown yew.  I am trying to convince him to let me at it but to no avail.  He's like the plumber with a dripping faucet.  A client for whom he's done some tree work asked if he could clean out some flower beds and plant bulbs for next spring.  Their 80+ year old gardener has dug his last hole...  Eric passed my name on to them because if there is no power tool involved, he is not involved.  They live across the way which is very convenient.  They have a lovely big dog with a head like an anvil which is wonderful.  And they feed me cake which is the best!  Yay me!

The lock down has gotten the numbers in the area down to the point where we may go from "red zone" to "orange zone".  With that change I can actually leave town and take a walk with friends, none of whom I've seen yet.  It also means we could go to the mountains which has it's downside for me as it means that walking up thing.  Damn.

Stay well.  xxoo me
